Expression of leukocyte-endothelial adhesion molecules during acute inflammation in the lung

Neutrophil (PMN)-endothelial cell adhesion is a critical step in the response of PMNsto inflammation. In the systemic circulation, the leukocyte adhesion molecule, L-selectin, facilitates PMN adhesion to inflamed endothelium while CD11/CD18 is required for PMN emigration into extravascular tissues....
